I once watched a puppy walk into a crate, curl up, sigh deeply… and fall asleep like the world had finally gone quiet.
That moment didn’t happen by accident.
It happened because the crate was introduced as a safe space, not a shut-away box.
When done right, a crate becomes a dog’s personal retreat — somewhere they choose, not somewhere they’re sent.
If your dog is struggling with crate training, it’s never too late to reset the experience and rebuild trust slowly.

Crate training often divides opinion. Some see it as an essential training tool, others as something uncomfortable or restrictive.

🐾❤️ A Special Delivery for Lady Flora! 👑🍪

Well, it seems Her Ladyship has acquired her very own personal chef! 🤭🤣

Meet Chef Raegan, a very special Bark & Ride doggo who has been busy in the kitchen preparing a rather lovely surprise for his friend Flora! 👨‍🍳🐕

Following a little dental treatment recently, Raegan needed some extra looking after, and I was only too happy to pop in and keep him company whenever his Mammy and Daddy, Maggie and Dan, couldn't be there.

As a little thank you, Chef Raegan and his wonderful kitchen assistants decided to make Flora her very own batch of homemade dog biscuits. And not just any biscuits... these even have her name on them! 🥹❤️

Made with carefully chosen ingredients, and with a little extra thought given to making sure everything was suitable for our doggos.

And the verdict from Her Royal Highness?

Absolutely DELICIOUS! 🐕😍

She's already enjoyed two, and I suspect she'd happily volunteer for further taste-testing duties! 🤭🤣😂

A huge thank you to Maggie, Dan and, of course, the very talented Chef Raegan. Such a thoughtful gesture, and one that's genuinely appreciated.

Sometimes it's the little things, and the lovely friendships we make along the way, that mean the most. ❤️🐾

Yesterday I watched a puppy proudly announce his affection… by attaching himself to a sleeve like a tiny furry pirate.
And honestly? That’s normal.
Puppy biting isn’t “bad behaviour” — it’s communication, teething, and play all rolled into one enthusiastic little package.
The trick isn’t stopping it overnight… it’s guiding it gently in the right direction.
Toys in, hands out. Calm reactions in, chaos out. Consistency wins every time.
And slowly, those sharp little love-bites turn into soft manners.
If your puppy is currently auditioning for the role of “tiny shark”, you’re not alone.

Puppy biting is almost always normal. It’s part teething, part play, and part learning how hard is too hard. Puppies explore the world with their mouths long before they understand manners. The key difference isn’t whether they bite — it’s how it develops over time.

⚠️ WARNING! ⚠️
Raegan's harness comes with a little-known safety warning...
Fitting may result in SERIOUS SLOBBERING! 🐕💦🤣
Apparently, morning walkies cannot commence until the person fitting the harness has received the appropriate number of kisses.
Health & Safety have been informed.
They declined to investigate. 😂🐾❤️

Ted showing off his new harness and lead today… 🐕😍

Still his usual happy, relaxed self — although apparently the new gear required a little extra enthusiasm…

“LOOK AT THE NEW GEAR, WORLD!” 🤣😂🤣

And yes, Ted assures me there’s a perfectly good reason he’s way out in front.

Someone has to properly road-test it! 🐕💨😂

Apparently, when you work with dogs for a living, the traditional way to spend a few days off is…

Go walking with dogs. 🤦‍♂️🐕🤣

A proper busman’s holiday this afternoon, enjoying a lovely walk around Sotts Hole in West Bromwich with my sister, her friends Ruby and Tracy, and the absolutely gorgeous Maisey and Jazz. 🐾❤️

Beautiful weather, lovely company, plenty of laughs and, naturally, two four-legged members of the walking party who completely stole the show! 😂

I suppose I could have taken a holiday from dogs…

…but where on earth would be the fun in that? 🤷‍♂️🤣🐕

And judging by these photos my sister took, I think Maisey and Jazz were quite happy with the arrangement too! 📸🐾❤️
